10 kitchen backsplash ideas - INMYROOM

Tips

Glass and brick, porcelain stoneware and tile, marble and laminate - when choosing a material for a kitchen backsplash, you can not limit your imagination

Each material corresponds to a particular design idea, each has both pluses and minuses. The main thing is to know about them in advance so as not to be disappointed.

1. Dark wall

If you don't intend to cook a lot, you can simply paint the wall behind the kitchen unit a dark color, such as grey. Cabinets of the same color will visually dissolve into space, and the kitchen will become invisible. nine0003

Design: SPACEFORLIFE

2. Slate paint

For a Scandinavian-style apartment or just a black and white interior, just what the doctor ordered. Beautiful and convenient: the recipe can be written directly over the stove. And most importantly, the paint can always be updated.

3. Glass

Glass is a great alternative to tiles. In order not to overload the interior of the kitchen with additional accents, designer Nadya Zotova used dusty blue paint and glass to finish the apron - it looks concise and stylish. nine0003

Design: Nadya Zotova, Enjoy Home

INMYROOM tip: QUELYD 007 Crystal Clear Transparent Mounting Adhesive-Sealant is perfect for mounting a glass backsplash. With it, it is not difficult to fix glass on the wall. There is an additional bonus: the glue is absolutely transparent, "invisible", and does not turn yellow over time. The adhesive line is ideal for any gluing and sealing projects, especially for conspicuous areas. nine0154

4. Ceramic tiles

An absolute favorite in kitchen decor! Geometric pattern tiles will be a bright accent in a bright kitchen. The ceramic tile is perfectly washed, and its wear resistance is what you need.

Design: Geometrium

5. Engineering board

Oddly enough, this is a budget option: the apron can be used with the remains of an engineering board, which there is nothing else to use. Such a surface must be coated with a special varnish. As a background for steel kitchen cabinets, the board looks very impressive. nine0003

Design: Alexey Korchinsky

6. Mosaic

A good choice for a small kitchen: mosaic visually expands the space. She also has disadvantages: the surface for the mosaic must be perfectly aligned and it must be laid strictly according to the instructions, without violating the technology. And, frankly, it's not easy to wash it.

Design: Nikita Zub

7. Brick

If you are making an industrial interior, brickwork will fit well into it. Do not forget to cover the surface of the bricks and the seams between them with a special moisture-resistant varnish that will protect the apron from contamination. nine0003

Design: Sophia Petrukhina

8. Boar

The most popular type of finish is small-format glazed ceramic tiles, similar in shape to brick and often laid like brickwork, that is, in a run. Usually, brick-like tiles have chamfers (bevels), that is, beveled edges along the edge of the tile, which add volume and texture to the surface lined with a “boar”.

Design: Anastasia Tuganova

9. Marble

There is no need to support marble - it is a wonderful natural material that can decorate any kitchen. But it also has disadvantages - fat is absorbed into it very deeply, and splashes from red wine remain forever.
